...Hardier varieties resulted from the crossings, in which R. gigantea was used as the father, and indeed from Mad. Berard as mother, a light salmon-coloured Amateur Lopes, whose petals pass at the tips to washed red.

The second cross, that is to say, the Tea rose x R. gigantea, produced several very excellent and beautiful hybrids, chiefly characterized by their soft coloring, their great profusion of blooms, and their greater resistance to cold. Among these we may especially note:
1st. Amateur Lopes, from Mme. Bérard x R. gigantea. Flower very large and full, pale salmon, washed with rose-lilac at the tips of the petals. A very floriferous plant of average vigor.
